English term

a ghoulish dummy’s head

English to Russian Art/Literary Poetry & Literature contextual description
A “Girl’s World” was a ghoulish dummy’s head on which to experiment with make-up.
Then came the bra-burning, banner-wielding, placenta-eating Sixties and suddenly Jane got herself some options. Wimmin needed men like fish needed, well, any form of transport, sisters were revolting and nights were reclaimed. Everywhere was insurrection and the flap of dungaree. But it took another couple of decades to realize that the next generation of Janes should be dragged to their parent’s work-places to alert them to the professional choices before them (чтобы предупредить их о необходимости делать стоящий перед ними выбор профессии). “Take Our Daughters to Work Day” was born and today is the latest outing for these loitering Lolitas.
